The promotion recently announced the full lineup for the card. In
the co-main event, Thanh Le will
lock horns with Kai Tang in a
featherweight (155-pound) championship clash. One Championship 160
takes place in Singapore and will also include muay Thai and
submission grappling bouts along with MMA.
Ok and Lee initially squared off at One “Revolution” this past
September, with Ok winning a five-round verdict to capture the
belt. The 31-year-old Busan Team Mad representative has won five
straight fights, with other notable wins against Eddie
Alvarez and Mafut Gafurov under the One banner.
The 24-year-old Lee had a six-bout winning streak snapped when he
relinquished the title to Ok. The Evolve MMA product has compiled a
15-4 mark while competing exclusively for the Singapore-based
organization.
Le will enter his title defense on a five-fight winning streak in
which he has finished all of his opponents via knockout or
technical knockout. Most recently, the Dana White’s Contender
Series alum stopped grappling ace Garry Tonon
in 56 seconds at One “Lights Out” on March 11.
China’s Tang has won nine straight contests over the course of a
streak that began in September 2017. In his last three outings, the
Dragon Warrior Shanghai export has secured first-round KO/TKO
finishes of Ryogo
Takahashi, Yoon Chang
Min and Jae Woong
Kim in One Championship competition.
